    Various Pupils

    Games I Play.
    I play Hurling, Football, Hunt-the-Fox, High-Spy, Fishing, Racing, Tig, Jumping, Jackstones (Knucks)
    Hunt-the-Fox.
    Ten children could play Hunt-the-Fox in this way. Three or four children will act as foxes and the remaining number will hunt them. What ever boy catches a fox that boy will be a fox and the boy that is caught must hunt.
    Tig.
    Tig is a very nice game for children
